varley16 Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 you wouldnt believe the amount of people who would buy something like that due to panic at fuel prices. i had an s-type with ball bearings put in the fuel tank as they did the same with molecules and blah blah blah, ending up fecking his fuel pump up in the end, funny thing is we had to drain the fuel tank to remove the ball bearings, so it didnt save fuel as he lost a load of it.

rtbiscuit Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 only way to save fuel is to not drive it, or don't push the right pedal very hard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam Mcgoo Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 I found one of these on my Twin Turbo Supra a few years ago that must have been put on by the previous owner. I was wondering what the hell it was at the time ( it was a different sort to what you posted but same idea) until i googled the companies name that was on it. I averaged around 18 MPG in that so I'm pretty sure it done nothing. I can't believe people think that a £5 magnet is going to improve their fuel economy and save them £££s It was like this one: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/FUEL-SAVER-Gas-Pe ... 2616wt_905 Makes an interesting read.

Malcolmpaul Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 If I fitted every device on my 350 to save fuel and increase power, it would do 300mph and 250mpg, I wish. NONE of these devices work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
